We consider a kinetic model whose evolution is described by a Boltzmann-like equation for the one-particle phase space distribution $f(x,v,t)$. There are hard-sphere collisions between the particles as well as collisions with randomly fixed…
We discuss the structure of radial solutions of some superlinear elliptic equations which model diffusion phenomena when both absorption and production are present. We focus our attention on solutions defined in R (regular) or in R \ {0}…

Diffusion is a fundamental physical phenomenon with critical applications in fields such as metallurgy, cell biology, and population dynamics. While standard diffusion is well-understood, anomalous diffusion often requires complex non-local…
We show how the nonlinear interaction effects `volume filling' and `adhesion' can be incorporated into the fractional subdiffusive transport of cells and individual organisms. To this end, we use microscopic random walk models with…
The present paper considers the full nonlinear dynamics of a homogeneous bubble inside an unbounded isentropic compressible inviscid liquid. This model is described by a free-boundary problem of compressible Euler equations with nonlinear…
Stochastic models of diffusion with excluded-volume effects are used to model many biological and physical systems at a discrete level. The average properties of the population may be described by a continuum model based on partial…
We investigate stationary states, including their existence and stability, in a class of nonlocal aggregation-diffusion equations with linear diffusion and symmetric nonlocal interactions. For the scalar case, we extend previous results by…

This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of coexistence steady states of the Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto model as both cross-diffusion coefficients tend to infinity at the same rate. In the case when either one of two cross-diffusion…
Aggregation-diffusion equations are foundational tools for modelling biological aggregations. Their principal use is to link the collective movement mechanisms of organisms to their emergent space use patterns in a concrete mathematical…
We study the "stiff pressure limit" of a nonlinear drift-diffusion equation, where the density is constrained to stay below the maximal value one. The challenge lies in the presence of a drift and the consequent lack of monotonicity in…
We investigate the super-linear spreading in a reaction-diffusion model analogous to the Fisher-KPP equation, but in which the population is heterogeneous with respect to the dispersal ability of individuals, and the saturation factor is…
In this paper, we study a class of equations representing nonlinear diffusion on networks. A particular instance of our model can be seen as a network equivalent of the porous-medium equation. We are interested in studying perturbations of…
In this paper, we study unique, globally defined uniformly bounded weak solutions for a class of semilinear reaction-diffusion-advection systems. The coefficients of the differential operators and the initial data are only required to be…
We study the nonlinear chaotic dynamics in a system of linear oscillators coupled by social network links with an additional stratification of oscillator energies, or frequencies, and supplementary nonlinear interactions. It is argued that…
Due to the non-linearity of Hertzian contacts, the speed of sound $c$ in granular matter is expected to increase with pressure as $P^{1/6}$. A static layer of grains under gravity is thus stratified so that bulk waves are refracted toward…
We consider the Helmholtz problem in the context of the evolution of uniform initial distribution of a physical attribute in general porous media subject to a partially absorbing boundary condition. Its spectral property as a reflection of…
We study Talenti's type symmetrization properties for solutions of linear stationary and evolution problems. Our main result establishes the comparison in norm between the solution of a problem and its symmetric version when nonlocal…
In equilibrium, the collective behaviour of particles interacting via steep, short-ranged potentials is well captured by the virial expansion of the free energy at low density. Here, we extend this approach beyond equilibrium to the case of…
